Re: [Acacia]Pests or Diseases
couple of pests to watch out for. caterpillars mainly. beleive it or not grasshoppers chew young growth. I use ecopest spray by multicrop. DONT use confidor...I have found it too strong for a number of leaves as they burn
Have also found a number of inch worms(i think) they move by arching themselves they eat the edges of leaves and also on callistamons
